PHP supports most of the databases existing on the earth. This should mean to you that, if your client wants a DB-driven website, you simply set a mySQL or PostgreSQL or anything else you wish, depending on the project size, for them and voila! > I am developing some PHP classes/functions that are utilizing > "file()" and "array()" to read and edit my flat files. Flat files are not suggested as they are VERY, VERY limited (with any language). Use mySQL or PostgreSQL, those are Open Sources and are free for use. No much development is required for using them. Quite simple. So, my final suggestion to you is to actually stick to a database, not Flat Files for ANYTHING you do in feature. And, PHP, of course. > NOTE: I think PHP is a great language and I do hope to stick with it. > There are many great resources like www.phpbuilder.com, > www.phpbeginner.com and the extensive documentation at www.php.net.
